STUDENT BODY PLAY

Amusing Comedy Presented by

Displaying real talent in the excel- 
lent characterization and carrying the 
delighted attention of a large audience 
throughout the performance, a play cast 
selected from the student lxxly very suc- 
cessfully presented Frank Craven's 
"New Brooms," in the college auditor- 
ium Friday evening. May 17. 

The play is a very amusing comedy 
of three acts, based on the eternal strug- 
gle between youth and age. Thomas 
Bates, Sr., is a man who has established 
a business and stayed by it until at 
present he is head of a broom manufac- 
turing concern which brings in large 
returns each year. His experience with 
life has made him an austere, quick 
tempered man and harsh type of per- 
son. His son, Tom, a boy just out of 
college, full of ideas and ideals, crit- 
icises his father because of his stern 
and often, grouchy manner of dealing 
with men. 

Tom insists that the pleasant, agree- 
able, happy man is the one who suc- 
ceeds in life. An agreement is reached 
whereby Tom is to take sole charge of 
his father's business for one year with- 
out interference from Thomas Bates, Sr. 

The rest of the play is concerned with 
Tom's management of the factory and 
household. He employs as housekeeper 
a young woman who needs work. In 
the factory he makes many changes for 
the convenience of the workers, but his 
efforts seem to be little appreciated. Ev- 
erything does not work out harmonious- 
ly ns Tom thought it would. He gives 
up pleasure trips, parties, etc., and 
works night and day. His engagement 
to Florence Wheeler is broken. His fa- 
ther takes a vacation trip to Florida, 
taking with him "Jerry," the neat little 
housekeeper. 

June — the end of the year — finds Tom 
somewhat aged, worn and discouraged. 
His father returns happy and rested, 
bringing Jerry, whom he has l>een send- 
ing to business school. 

The play ends in a compromise — 
youth concedes to age, and age glories 
in youth. 

The leading part was carried by Dick 
Haworth as Tom Bates, Jr. He gave 
a very pleasing characterization 
throughout the play, showing unusual 
talent and skill in performance. 

The part of the housekeeper was one 
of the most interesting and delightful, 
and was carried excellently by Miss Gen- 
evieve Badley. 

Ben Huntington as Thomas Bates. Sr., 
delighted his audience again and again 
with his realistic display of austere 
quick temper and his able portrayal 
throughout the play. 

Robert Whitlock as George Morrow 
made an exasperatlngly persistent oil 
stock agent, and Frank Cole as "Wal- 
lie" Nowell was a rather easy going 
friend and later son in the Bates family. 

The impersonations of Ethel Bates by 
Esther Roberts and of Florence Wheel- 
er by Rachel Lundquist were very well 
given. 

Ralph Choate, as Kneeland, Mr. 
Bates' business manager, and Glen Rin-

Nearly seventy visitors enlivened the 
campus on the afteinoon and evening 
of Friday, May 17. These seventy high 
school seniors were here at the invita- 
tion of the college to get acquainted 
with our campus and some of our ac- 
tivities. 

Invitations had been sent out to stu- 
dents who had shown some interest in 
the college, in ten high schools from 
Poitland to Salem, inclusive. Six of 
these schools were represented, being: 
Newberg, Washington, Franklin, Ti- 
gard, Salem and St. Paul. There was 
also one student from Northwestern 
Business college of Portland. 

The visitois were met. on their ar- 
rival, by some member of the student 
body and taken to the office to register. 
Those who arrived before the baseball 
game were shown around the campus 
until 3:30. At that time every one went 
out to the athletic field to watch the 
game between the freshman-sophomore 
and junior-senior teams. Following the 
ball game Mr. Terrell's gymnasium class 
gave a fine exhibition of skill and train- 
ing. Their program consisted of tum- 
bling, diving, tight-rope walking and 
pyramid building. All of the numbers 
were well done and certainly pleased 
and interested the visitois. 

At six o'clock came the banquet. Here 
the guests enjoyed fine food and a short 
piogram. Rachel Lundquist gave a 
short talk about what girls do at Pa- 
cific; Ben Huntington gave one about 
what boys do at Pacific; Mary Sue Bin- 
ford played a piano solo; Dennis Mc- 
Guire sung a solo; and the men's quar- 
tet sang. 

After the banquet the visiting stu- 
dents were all given tickets to the stu- 
dent body play. They all enjoyed the 
play immensely and went home talk- 
ing about the good time they had had. 
Many were really interested and mak- 
ing plans to come here as freshmen 
next year. 



CONFERENCE TRACK MEET 

IS HELD AT MONMOUTH 



Saturday, May 11th, Monmouth was 
the scene of a most amazing and inter- 
esting spectacle when the Conference 
Track Meet was held at that place. 
There were but three schools who par- 
ticipated, Monmouth, Albany and Pa- 
cific. -Linfield dropped out because of 
lack of material. 

With only eight entries. Pacific made 
a good showing and established a prece- 
dent in good sportsmanship that track 
teams in the future at P. C. will have 
to look back upon. 

The preliminaries were held in the 
morning in the low hurdles, high hur- 
dles and 220 yd. dash. These were won 
by Jackson, Monmouth; Dougherty, Al- 
bany; and Wirt, Pacific, respectively. 

The afternoon witnessed a series of 
brilliant runs with exciting finishes. The 
best of these came In the two mile run, 
with Dick Haworth being barely nosed 
out for first place after a fine sprint, 
breaking the conference record by 10 
seconds, to the tune of 10:45.2. 

Bob Bissett placed either 2nd or 3rd 
in all of his five events. Kendall took

The wedding of Miss Marie Hester 
and Mr. Alvin Allen was solemnized at 
the home of the bride's parents, Dr. 
! and Mrs. Thomas W. Hester, at 8:30 

o'clock Thursday evening. May 16. 
j The bride was lovely in a gown of 
I white georgette with bridal veil and 
beautiful wreath of orange blossoms. 
She carried a shower bouquet of shell 
pink rosebuds, lily of the valley and 
white sweet peas. She was attended 
by Miss Rosa Aebischer as maid of hon- 
or, who wore a light peach georgette 
gown and carried a bouquet of lavender 
sweetpeas, and by Miss Olive Kendall 
as bridesmaid, who wore a light green 
georgette gown and carried pink sweet 
peas. The groom was attended by Mr. 
Ralph Hester as best man and Mr. Ho- 
mer Hester as usher. 

The Hester home was beautifully dec- 
orated in Solomon Seal and Snapdrag- 
ons. As the guests assembled, Mr. Ho- 
mer Hester sang "At Dawning." Miss 
Delia Hanville played the "Bridal Cho- 
rus from Lohengrin with violin accom- 
paniment played by Mr. Joseph Silver. 
] During the ceremony "Vision of Mar- 
guerite" from Faust was played very 
softly by Miss Hanville.. 'fhe ring cer- 
emony was used, Rev. Gervas A. Carey 
. officiating. 

Many relatives and friends of the 
' young couple were present, including 
several out of town guests. Mr. and 
i Mrs. Oliver Neal and Mr. and Mrs. Clyde 
' Ruegg of Gresham, Mrs. Alice Clark, 
| Mr. R. R. Clark, Mrs. Laura Huxley, 
| and Miss Mildred Hadley of Portland, 
and Mr. Lloyd Armstrong and Miss 
Florence Armstrong of Tigard. 

A reception was held immediately fol- 
lowing the ceremony. 

The groom is of Jetmore, Kansas, and 
was a student of journalism at South- 
western college, Winfield, Kansas, this 
year. He has represented the school 
in literary and forensic activities, and 
met Marie Hester while visiting Friends 
University, where she received her A. 
B. degree last spring. 

The bride is a former student and 
graduate of Pacific College and has been 
acting as technician and office assist- 
ant in her father's office. 

Mr. and Mrs. Allen sailed on May 18 
for the Philippine Islands where both 
will teach English under the United 
States Bureau of Education. 



SECOND PLACE WON 
BY PACIFIC NETMEN 

Monmouth Draws First Place in 
Valley Conference 



Pacific College showed the other mem- 
bers of the Willamette Valley Confer- 
ence that she is right there when it 
comes to wielding racquets, by taking 
second place in the conference meet 
held at Linfield last Friday and Sat- 
urday. Monmouth, with a team in ev- 
ery final carried off first honors for 
the day. Linfield took third place and 
Albany, who failed to show up, was 
conceded fourth place. 

In the preliminaries on Friday, Cole 
defeated Wakeman of Linfield in a long 
three set match. Beals and Livingston, 
representing Pacific in the mixed dou- 
bles, lost to Monmouth in straight sets 
after running the second set up to five 
all. Woodward lost to the Linfield girl 
star in the women's singles. The men's 
doubles and the women's doubles both 
went to Pacific by virtue of drawing 
Albany in these matches. Linfield plac- 
ed mixed doubles in the finals by the 
same route. 

On Saturday, Cole, after getting off 
to a bad start, picked up and bested the 
Monmouth entry in men's singles by 
scores of 4-C, fi-4, 8-4, 6-3. Huntington 
and Beals, "smallest men's doubles team 
in the world," were nosed out by Mon- 
mouth. With the sets one all, the local 
boys hustled into the third set to gain 
an advantage of 5-1. The Monmouth 
team, gaining some feminine support, 
picked up to win 10-8. The scores of 
this long match were 8-6, 1-6, 10-8, 6-2. 
Woodward and Livingston, famous Qua- 
ker girls' doubles team, rallied too late 
and lost in two hard fought sets, 6-4, 
7-5. 

When the last ball in the 1929 Wil- 
lamette Valley Conference tennis meet 
was struck Monmouth was found to 
have won four matches, Pacific one, 
and Linfield none. 



THE FOURTH YEARS ARE 

ENTERTAINED IN PORTLAND 



I 



On the evening of Saturday, May 11, 
the Fourth Year Class was delightfully 
entertained with a party at the home 
of Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Flinn of Port- 
land. 

The whole class, with the exception 
of Rosa Bisbee and Damon McKibben, 
who were not able to go, left the col- 
lege building about 6:15 p. m. Dennis 
McGuire and Cecil Hinshaw furnished 
cars for transportation, and after a 
rather uneventful trip they reached 
their destination about 7:30. 

The first surprise they had was to 
find the Flinn home beautifully decor- 
ated in the class colors of coral and 
pearl gray. Everyone was immediately

PACIFIC DEFEATS ASHLAND 10-9 
IN EXCITING GAME HERE MAY. 8 



In a game packed with thrills, spec- 
tacular catches, and all sorts of new 
plays, Pacific College outdid Ashland 
Normal by a count of 10-9. The game, 
after the usual nine innings were com- 
pleted, was tied and an extra inning in 
which Ashland first scored three runs 
only to have the Quakers come back and 
bunch four hits for four runs with only 
one out when the winning run scored. 
The slug-fest took place on the P. C. 
diamond May 8. 

The story of the game can never be 
told in the way it was played. The 
English language has never originated 
words typical of the intense excitement 
exhibited on that memorable day. When 
the first five innings were over the score 
stood 5-0 for Ashland and several peo- 
ple left. Perhaps this was why the 
Normal coach, thinking the game won, 
substituted another pitcher who imme- 
diately forced in a run by hitting Gett- 
mann, after Everest had badly rattled 
him by already practically stealing 
home. In the next inning the Quakers 
ran in four runs by some timely hitting

THE LAST LAP 

With a little more than two weeks of school left, we are now 
cn the home stretch of our school year. Has it been a happy, 
pleasant, and valuable time? I think that for most of us it has 
been. It has been a smooth year of many pleasant happenings 
and will be well remembered. 

A number of students will not be back next year, the grad- 
uating Seniors and the Academy underclassmen. Some will drop 
out for various reasons, but we hope that they will not soon for- 
get our little college. To those who are finishing their work here 
we wish to say that we will miss you, but we hope you will be 
as successful and happy in your chosen work as you have been 
here. M. D. V. 



It is with great pleasure that I introduce to you Marion 
DeVine, associate editor, to whom is due the success of this issue. 
Mr. DeVine is a faithful helper in the work of putting out the 
Crescent, and I appreciate all such help as his. Once again I 
would like to request that you of the student body and faculty 
would help the editors by contributing more articles, jokes, per- 
sonal items or poems. We need and appreciate whatever items 
you may be able to give to us. R. E. C.

aid as Rev. Philip Dow worked nicely 
in their parts. Elisabeth Carey as Mar- 
garet, ami Irvin Diment as Williams did 
commendable work. Simpson and Nel- 
son, represen ted by Car] Sandoz and 
Elmore Jackson, were ably portrayed. 

Much of the success of the play is 
doubtless due to the efforts of Miss 
Laura Betts as coach. 

Interesting numbers, consisting of pi- 
ano solos by Mary Sue Einford, read- 
ings by Ronald Sherk and vocal solos 
by Philip Gatch were given between 
acts. 

V. W. ENTERTAINS MOTHERS 

A "Meet My Mother" party was given 
at Wood-Mar Hall on Friday evening, 
May 10. The social hour was sponsored 
by the Y. W. C. A. The members of 
the Pacific College Student Body and 
their mothers were invited. Interesting 
"get acquainted" games were played 
and also other games of various games 
of various kinds. Refreshments of 
punch and Mother's Day cookies were 
seived. Everyone reported an enjoy- 
able evening.

and the score was tied. In the eighth, 
the original pitcher was rushed in but 
the Pacific team had their eyes on the 
ball game by this time and were hitting 
almost everything high, wide and hand- 
some. The local team scored another 
run in this inning to go into the lead. 
Ashland threatened to come back and 
win the game in the first of the ninth 
but were let down with one run. Pa- 
cific went scoreless in their half of the 
ninth. 

Then came the tenth. The southern 
boys came to bat and were handed three 
runs by the locals without a single hit. 
This seemed to only be for encourage- 
ment, however, as the boys soon proved 
by stepping up to bat in the last half 
of the tenth and bunching four hits 
ran in four runs to win the old ball 
game. Hummel fiied out. Diment safe- 
ly reached first on a clean single. Sweet 
gave the ball a ride to reach first and 
sent Diment to third. Harle advances 
Sweet and scores Diment, himself being 
on first. Smith comes up and unlike 
Casey, raps out a long double that 
scores both Sweet and Harle and on 
an overthrew to home reaches third. 
Everest, left-handed P. C. slugger, ad- 
vanced to the plate and popped a per- 
fect single over the first baseman's 
head, scoring Smith.

At present we are in the hec- 
tic climax of our school year. 
Many of us have a great deal 
of work which should be com- 
pleted soon. This is the time 
when we long for the pleasure 
of taking a day off to rest and 
enjoy ourselves in ease. We have 
approached dangerously near the 
point of rebellion at school tasks. 
Spring fever has weakened our 
ability to accomplish scholastic 
feats. 

Yet, during our summer va- 
cation, we often wish for some 
of the pleasures we shared in 
school and we are usually willing 
to return when the summer is 
over. 

Now is the time to throw off 
fatigue or lack of ambition. 
What could be better than a glo- 
rious finish? Cheer up; be en- 
couraged; strive for victory — 
"It won't be long now." — D. 



The great peace and quiet 
which prevailed on Tuesday con- 
vinced us all of the value of a 
day upon which the Fourth 
Years may make merry — else- 
where. 

FOURTH YEAR FROLIC 

Tuesday, May 14, when a chapel 
speaker said, "I suppose you don't have 
Sneak Day in this school," the Fourth 
Year class was frolicking in or near 
Silver Creek. 

All the metiers of the class. Miss Ver- 
plank, Mrs. McOuire, and Mrs. Barnes, 
met at six o'clock at Wood-Mar Hall 
and with the company of "The Bear" 
were soon on their road to Silver Creek 
Falls After an uneventful trip the falls 
were reached and no time was lost in 
starting hiking. Several groups were 
made and the falls, both above and be- 
low camp, were visited. The falls are 
about a hundred feet high and extra- 
ordinarily pretty. The scenery was 
worth the effort in hiking it took to 
get to the falls. 

Then came a dinner of sandwiches, 
coffee, milk, cake, salads, pickles, and 
the ever present standby of the camper 
~-beans. Of course the lunch was some- 
what mixed with dirt, ashes and ants, 
but that, to the hungry Fourth Years, 
made it all the better. 

After lunch one group decided to go 
wading, and did so, with the sad result 
of ending up in the water and shiver- 
ing the rest of the day. A second group 
motored up to a falls about three miles 
above camp and spent the afternoon 
in taking pictures and hiking. 

Later there was a ball game and the 
class picture was taken with the faith- 
ful "Teddy." 

After everyone had become at least 
partly dry Br had returned from hiking, 
a lunch was eaten and the tired but 
happy group returned home. Losses 
sustained were: Mary Sue's hat. a fish- 
hook and all of the Fourth Year dignity. 



Dennis McGuire took a car and Lil- 
lian Barnes took' her truck.

made to feel at home and all took part 
enthusiastically in the games that Mrs. 
Flinn had prepared for the evening's 
fun. One of the most exciting contests 
was the five point relay between the 
"Pink Fleas" and the "Reindeer," from 
which skirmish the Fleas emerged vic- 
torious by a score of 3-2 and received 
the prize of a box of candy. The most 
amusing event of the evening was the 
"mock wedding," in which Ralph Moore 
as the bashful groom and Dennis Mc- 
Guire as the blushing bride took their 
solemn vows and "wilted" as the cere- 
mony was read by Errett Hummel. The 
words of the minister and the actions 
of the bride and groom caused much 
fun and laughter. Cecil Hinshaw was 
the ring-bearer and carried the ring — 
a doughnut — carefully, on a pillow. Mr. 
Flinn took time-exposure pictures of 
the happy bridal party and also of the 
entire class. Any one of that class 
group could easily tell from experience 
the difficulty of holding one expres- 
sion and position for two minutes. 

After having a lot of fun and more 
noise, the group was seated at a beau- 
tifully candle-lighted, decorated table. 
There were favors and crepe paper hats 
at each place, and a delightful two- 
course lunch of toasted wieners and 
buns, potato chips, pickles and hot choc- 
olate, followed by fruit salad and cake, 
was served. 

The party ended with everyone happy 
and with but one casualty to relate — • 
when Doctor Ralph Moore tried to doc- 
tor Mary Sue's doll, and managed to 
cremate it successfully. 

After thanking the host and hostess 
for a really wonderful time, they left 
for home, stating that this was the most 
successful Fourth Year party of the 
year. 

Mrs. Sutton went as chaperon.

May 8 

"The Christian's Walk" was the sub- 
ject of Mrs. Frost's talk in Y. W. on 
May 8. She read from the book, "The 
Heavenly Harmonies for Earthly Liv- 
ing." 

Man's walk and movements reveal 
his character, so we should "walk not 
after the flesh, but after the spirit," 
"walk by faith," and walk humbly with 
our God. Walking with God implies 
harmony, humility, and holiness. The 
universe itself is harmony, and harmony 
comes only through obedience. Humil- 
ity is the Christian's best virtue and 
crowning grace. And a perfect life is 
one which is perfectly healthy, whole, 
and holy; holiness shows completeness 
of character. A true Christian is one 
who has changed eyes with God, and 
sees as God sees. 

In concluding, Mrs. Frost quoted the 
words of the old philosopher, "We must 
have a little heaven to get to heaven 
in." 

May 15 

"Thought" was the topic for Y. W. 
on May IB, led by the Senior girls. Vel- 
da Livingston led the devotions, and 
short talks were given by Rosa Aebisch- 
er, Gwendolyn Hanson, and Rachel 
Lundquist. 

A few of the maxims presented in 
the talks were: Thinging is the talk- 
ing of the soul to itself. Our useful- 
ness depends on our ability to think. 
What we are afraid to do before men, 
we should be afraid to think before God. 
As a man thinketh, so is he. Life is 
like a garden; the more it is cultivated, 
the more flowers or good thoughts there 
are, and the less weeds or bad thoughts. 
Life is like a valley, with a stream of 
thoughts running through it, refresh- 
ing, purifying, and life-giving.

QUAKER MEN'S TENNIS TEAM 
SHUTS OUT SALEM HIGH HERE 



The Quaker men's tennis team shut 
out a plucky team from Salem High 
on the Pacific courts, May 10. The lo- 
cal team won all of the three matches 
played. The men's doubles were played 
first. Huntington and Beals, Pacific's 
"midget team," easily defeated the Sa- 
lem doubles. Cole won his match from 
the visiting No. 1 man after a very 
close and hard-fought match. Gatch 
easily dispensed with his opponent to 
close a very successful afternoon.

CHAPEL TALKS 



"1 



L 



Y. M. C. A. 



May 7 

At the chapel period members of the 
High School play cast presented several 
short skits from the play, "Seventeen," 
which they presented at the Central 
School Auditorium on the following 
Thursday and Friday evenings. 

May 10 

Student Chapel consisted mainly of 
a pep rally under the direction of Es- 
ther Mueller, song leader, and Elmore 
Jackson, yell king. The Pep Band play- 
ed two selections, (a) March, "Activity," 
(a) March "Safety." Following these 
Miss Mueller led the student hotly in 
singing several lively songs. Then Prof. 
Gulley and Bob Bissett made announce- 
ments concerning the approaching ath- 
letic meets at Monmouth and here, and 
President Pennington gave a short talk 
about track work. The meeting ended 
with several peppy yells for the track 
and tennis teams. 

May 14 

Dr. Ray Culver, Northwest Secretary 
of y. M. C. A., was the chapel speaker. 
Mr. Culver, who has just recently re- 
turned from attending the National 
Staff meeting at New Haven, Connecti- 
cut, told in a most interesting manner 
some impressions received during his 
trip. 

•Dr. Culver was strongly impressed by 
the spirit of short-cuts and dishonesty 
which is so common today. In illus- 
trating the prevalency of this attitude 
he related an incident which occurred 
as he was riding into Boston. Seated 
behind him was a young man who, em- 
phasizing his ambitious intentions, said 
to the young lady beside him, "I take 
off my hat to the man with the cash, 
and I don't care how he got it," and 
the girl said, "Yeah!" 

Dr. Culver believes that this is typ- 
ical of an attitude which is increasing 
in the business world. He pointed out 
some of the expressions of this idea of 
"success at any cost" in athletics and 
class room work in colleges — where pol- 
iticians and business men "learned it." 

However, the speaker also saw an- 
other side of American life. While in 
the east he visited the statue of Nathan 
Hale in Connecticut, and the Lincoln 
Memorial in Washington, D. C. where 
throngs of people were coming and go- 
ing. He also attended the Friends 
church which President and Mrs. Hoov- 
er attend, and was deeply impressed 
by the quiet worship service and the 
steadfast faith of those who worshipped 
there together. These are hopeful signs 
in our national life. 

"I believe we have to stand today 
like a flint against dishonesty," Dr. Cul- 
ver said. "One who is dishonest finally 
fools no one but himself." 

In conclusion he pointed out that 
when a republic becomes dishonest it 
is doomed, for its very foundations are 
going. It is good Christianity to stand 
for honesty and integrity against the 
popular drive — the "go-getter." Dr. Cul- 
ver l>elieves that there is enough 
strength in Christian youth to do it. 
May 16 

Following a devotional period led by 
Arthur Winters, and a short student 
body meeting, members of the cast of 
"New Brooms" presented two skits from 
the play. 

May 17 

Professor Weesner gave a very inter- 
esting talk explaining "What is 'Wall 
Street?' " and pointing out the uses of 
the stock exchange as a speculation 
scheme and as a means to buying and 
selling for investment purposes. He ex- 
plained in very understandable terms 
what is meant by "stocks and "bonds."

May 8 

Professor Lewis spoke at the T. M. 
meeting May 8, on some interesting 
facts of past Y. M. C. A. work. He 
spoke of the influence and relative po- 
sition of the Y. M. in college life. The 
meeting was favored with a duet by 
Helen Whipple and Lela Gulley, ac- 
companied by Rachel Lundquist. 
May 15 

The Y. M. C. A. meeting May 15 was 
the scene of the annual Seabeck Boost- 
ers Day. The meeting was held in the 
V. M. C. A. room where pictures of past 
Seabeck days were thrown on the wall 
by the use of the stereopticon machine. 
Arthur Winters, who was a delegate to 
Seabeck lase year, gave a splendid talk 
on the times of spiritual uplift and help 
found at Seabeck and gave some of this 
year's program.

CLASS VISITS CITY COUNCIL 

Monday evening, May C, the Civics 
class, composed of third and fourth 
years, attended the meeting of the New- 
berg City Council. Through arrange- 
ments by Miss Sutton, the instructor, 
the class met in front of the City Hall 
at 7:50. They entered in a body before 
the meeting liegan and had an oppor- 
tunity to watch the councilmen arrive. 

A varied program of business was 
brought before the council. This proved 
instructive as well as entertaining to the 
class. 

Long after the curfew pealed forth 
its golden notes, the class departed, 
leaving (he city fathers in uninterrupt- 
ed meditation. 

John Astelfoid proved to be the hero 
of the occasion. He remained until the 
meeting adjourned, walked home, ate 
his bieakfast and returned to school 
to report on the proceedings.
